那里住着一个女人，我从未见过她，但每天下午我都能看到她坐在窗边，做着针线活或读书。

There was a woman who lived there, whom I had never met, yet I could see her seated by her window each afternoon, sewing or reading.

现在我不再用三角函数，不用再查元素周期表，不用再设计火山模型，不再做句式分解、背诵单词，但我每天都在读书。

I no longer use trigonometry, I don't refer to the periodic table, and I don't build models of volcanoes. I've given up diagramming sentences or memorizing spelling words but I read every day.
